Scholars At Risk (@scholarsatrisk) just released its 2026 report, documenting "382 attacks on scholars, students, and institutions in 59 countries and territories from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026."
https://www.scholarsatrisk.org/resources/free-to-think-2026/"Attacks on the higher education community included direct repression and overt violence. State authorities attacked, disappeared, and wrongfully imprisoned members of the higher education community. They also deployed police and/or military force to crack down on student protests."
"Governments in Georgia, India, Serbia, and the United States have banned research topics, cut funding on ideological grounds, and placed partisan actors on university governance bodies. While often justified in neutral terms—such as fiscal discipline, public accountability, or anti-discrimination—these interventions are often used to impose ideological control."
